Conception Maiden - Reveal + Demo download

Hi everyone,
The first main demo of a game I've been making since last year is finally here and can be downloaded below.

Conception Maiden story:

A boy name Minori is awoken from cold sleep(cryostasis) by a mother and her daughter, only to find that a deadly virus wiped out most of humanity, and that the 3 of them are the last living humans on earth (with the exception of an unknown number of other people in cold-sleep pods). The world is also overrunned by "cross-breeds", deadly parasitic life-forms. With just the 3 of them left, humanity faces complete extinction.

In order to prevent extinction, Minori must(to his dismay) have sex with the mother and daughter, and impregnate them. Using special technology, pregnancies can be accelerated to full-term, and birthed babies' age can be accelerated to maturity. Then Minori will be forced to impregnate his female offsprings through sex as well. Interestingly, all his offspring are female. Unfortunately for Minori, these girls love sex and want to rebuild the world into his own personal sex-paradise harem. Through this, Minori can increase the human population and use the girls' help to hopefully reach more cold sleep pods before it's too late, as well as take back land from the cross-breeds.
-------------------------

This game is a blend of tactical rpg and a side-scrolling platform-based fighting game. The game is played in 3 different main modes: Exploration mode, where you can walk around freely, Command mode, where you use a cursor to select and command units to move on a top-down map(similar to tactical games such as fire emblem), and Battle mode, where you control the character directly and fight the enemy in a side-scrolling fighter/platformer-like view.

The game's characters were made with 3DCG and was animated in different ways using mikumiku dance, photoshop, and a "figure" animation system I wrote from scratch. Not just that, I also wrote the game engine from scratch using GM studio. Note though, that is game is still in early development and the engine has only recently become stable. However, there is alot of content, so please give the demo a try!

EDIT2: LINK UPDATED 8/20, "out of memory" error and crash seen on integrated graphic cards fixed, special thanks to redplauge for help with debug testing. Overall game performance improved and ESC no long exits ingame. Also, bug fixed causing game error when pressing "X" key on exploration mode(since Demo 1a). New fixed version is now called "Demo 1b".

Press Esc to quit the game.

Some notes about the current demo:

-The enemies currently do not attack you in battle mode.
-Weapons are to be added to battle mode
-Lorelei's personality/look will be revised for the next demo
-I've spent alot of time debugging so hopefully there aren't any major bugs

More info as well as concept images after the jump(click on the title of this post)

The main characters in the in the demo are
Victoria - A massive woman who lived as a housewife before contracting the virus. She is a kind, reserved, motherly figure.
Lorelei - Only daughter of Victoria. Friendly, kind and a bit of a momma's girl.
Minori - A shy, timid boy awaken from cold sleep by Victoria and Lorelei.
Miyumi - Minori's childhood who paid the cost for him to enter cold sleep. A medical student.

The game was in development since last year. Major h-themes of the game will include things such as femdom, pregnancy, harem and incest. Here is some concept art for the game(note that the offsprings in all the images will likely be revised more before being added into the game)(click on image to enlarge):

--------A little more about the setting-------
Sometime in the future, the earth is attacked by warship full of parasitic aliens. Humanity retaliates, overwhelming and destroying the parasitic aliens. However, before the aliens died, they left mankind with two things. One, a deadly airborne virus meant to wipe out humans while also condemning their reproductivity. Two, the "cross-breeds", new hybrid parasitic alien-earthling life-forms capable of living in earth's environment.

----A little more about the story------
A boy named Minori contracts the deadly virus created by the aliens, giving him only a few more days left to live. In hopes that cure would be discovered in the future, Minori enters cold sleep after getting funding for the procedure from his childhood friend, Miyumi.

Minori awakes a few years later by a mother and her daughter who gives him the cure. However, he learns that aside from the 3 of them, all of humanity has been wiped out by the virus. The only exception to this is the unknown number of humans in cold sleep, who could possibly be awakened.

--------------------------------

Ideas, questions, suggestions, and comments are welcome.
I look forward to reading what you'll post.

um, a few people were reporting this while others said the game ran fine. The "out of memory" error seems to be caused by memory fragmentation, specifically on computers such as the ones with integrated graphics(integrated graphics seem to fragment memory, which causes there to be not enough free continuous memory). I've posted more about it and am trying to fix it here: https://legendofkrystal.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=9108&p=735097

Sorry for your trouble, hopefully, once I am able find a way to fix it, I will post an updated version of the game here.
